[PATCH] perf tools: improve robutness of topology parsing code

From: Stephane Eranian
Date: Wed Aug 14 2013 - 06:03:37 EST




This patch improves the robutness of the build_cpu_topo()
routine by allowing either the CPU parsing or the thread
parsing to fail and yet get perf to produce some topology
data which could be useful for the analysis. Without this
patch, if the cpu parsing fails, the thread parsing is not
attempted vice-versa.
